Eyebrow Thoughts

What do you think of this eyebrow design without the cut-out for the main beam . . .

I like it....I have something similar on my e91 in black. Did them myself. Gives a more aggressive look and blends the hood line.

Personally I don't like anything "tacked-on" that looks like an after thought. But I also I've had a hard time accepting the raised part of the e90 sedan's headlight design, esp with pre-LCI's built-in amber side marker. These seem to blend in well with the car's lines in comparison to many "brows" or "lids" out there.

The eyelid looks somewhat mean, but the plate and "Charge speed" looks, uh, ricey. You asked.

looks pretty tacky when it's on the outside. looks like a car trying to grab someone's attention with cheap tactics to overplay their value

Looks a lot better if it's inside the headlight assembly

Ehh. Makes it look a bit like an angry fish if I'm honest.

I'm happy . . . got rid of the e90 sedan's quirky headlight shape and it now has an aggressive look.

I didn't expect to like it (I usually hate eyebrows) but honestly? That particular style, on your car... not bad.

As mentioned, I personally didn't like them as well. But the non-M e90 sedan's headlight (esp with the amber corners) shape bothered me.

Some vandal put a bunch of stickers on the OP's door as well, hate when that happens.
